Heinrich Carl Franz Emil Timerding (23 January 1873 in Strasbourg [1] – 30 April 1945 in Braunschweig) was a German mathematician, professor at the Braunschweig University of Technology, mainly known for his contributions to probability theory. He was awarded the Brunswick and the Prussian War Merit Cross, the Ritterkreuz ( Knight's Cross) of the Order of Henry the Lion, and in 1938 the Nazi Civil Service Faithful Service Medal. [1]
In 1900 he attended Columbia University in New York City the American Mathematical Society's summer meeting, where he read a paper. [2]
